Route pics

I didn't know NJ still had full service. (Been way to long since I was out that direction by car)

Oregon was such a joy to vacation ...full service was a welcome bonus!
 
Is the area so congested that an easier curve couldn't be designed?
Ah the story of while that curve is has nothing much to do with cars.but simply the way henry gifford blazed the trail to ft pierce ftom Sebastian in the 1890s.I'm thinking the curve was only because of the least amount of clearing.us1 ,dixie hwy came much later and was built over that trail of white sand.

Image of the white Sandy trail is in that link.viking ,fl is not far from me.
 
You have seen this area before and after.oh the creek that was made Main relief canal.I found it in a topo.it's where I said it was.

I thought about that after I posted. Yes, I have seen the before & after photos, and found them fascinating as I recall.
 
The barn,which is viewed from the south and I zoomed in ,is on the lot with home with the two green barns.I will post a topo of several things.this home being easily found on it with contour lines.the homes are dated about the same time and are built but no longer oneed by the Helseth family. Go back a page and read up on Helseth.that is the same family thar started viking and Oslo.I will also mention Crawford's cove.that is the from the original name for Oslo.Crawford's point.in the 43 topo I could make out these homes and at the doc at the east end of Oslo rd.it appears logs were being loaded unto a barge.that or a doc was being built.
